Fragile Saints Claire Ibarra

A heartfelt debut, Fragile Saints follows the journey of a woman bruised by betrayal and divorce to her father's ancestral home in Peru. Like the silkworms on the family farm, Elsa emerges from her cocoon transformed and ready to brave a new life. Fans of Isabel Allende will savor this lushly textured romance. -Debra Dean, author of The Madonnas of Leningrad
